Acoustic sensing of gas seeps in the deep ocean with split-beam echosounders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
When in the form of free gas in the water column, methane seeps emanating from the seabed are strong acoustic targets that are often detectable from surface vessels using echo sounders.In addition to detecting that a seep is present at some location, it ...

Geophysical Insights Into 3D Crustal Architecture of Jurassic Magmatic Intrusions in the Moroccan Atlas

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Magmatic intrusions in rifted continental margins play a critical role in shaping structural evolution, yet their geometry and emplacement mechanisms remain poorly constrained in salt‐influenced terrains. The Moroccan Central High Atlas, a segment of the Atlas fold‐and‐thrust belt, hosts extensive Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous intrusions

The thermal history of the Mesozoic Algarve Basin (South Portugal) and its implications for hydrocarbon exploration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Algarve Basin is the southernmost geological province of mainland Portugal, outcropping along the entire south coast area and extending offshore, where it is recognised on seismic lines and in hydrocarbon exploration wells.

ADRIA LITHOSPHERE INVESTIGATION ALPHA - Cruise No. M86/3, January 20 - February 04, 2012, Brindisi (Italy) - Dubrovnik (Croatia) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Adriatic Sea and underlying lithosphere remains the least investigated part of the Mediterranean Sea. To shed light on the plate tectonic setting in this central part of southern Europe, R/V METEOR cruise M86/3 set out to acquire deep penetrating ...

Aseismic Slip on the Ilyak Strike‐Slip Fault (Tajikistan) and Active Fault and Landslide Hazards in and Around the Tajik Basin Revealed by InSAR

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...

Natural to anthropogenic forcing in the Holocene evolution of three coastal lagoons (Caldas da Rainha valley, western Portugal) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In the coast of Central Portugal three lagoons were created by the Holocene flooding of diapiric-related depressions but experienced afterwards a significant sediment accumulation.

Three‐dimensional gravity current interactions with oblique slopes: Deflection, reflection and combined‐flow behaviours

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2121-2159, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Gravity currents interacting with planar slopes have been thought to always ‘reflect’ a component of flow orthogonal to the slope irrespective of the flow incidence angle. Incoming flows are argued to undergo gravitational collapse, and generate internal waves, that propagate perpendicular to the bounding slope.

Interplay Between Salt Tectonics and a Large Igneous Province in the Espírito Santo Basin (Brazil)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Salt tectonics provinces host numerous resources and are now targeted as potential areas of development for energy storage capacities such as underground storage in salt caverns. Sedimentary basins containing salt structures are common at passive margins where volcanic rocks, emplaced either during the lithospheric breakup or the post‐rift ...

The Mundeck Salt Unit: A Review of Aptian Depositional Context and Hydrocarbon Potential in the Kribi-Campo Sub-Basin (South Cameroon Atlantic Basin)

open access: yesGeosciences
The Kribi-Campo sub-basin, located in the Gulf of Guinea, constitutes the southeastern segment of the Cameroon Atlantic Margin. Drilling in the Aptian salt unit revealed a sparse hydrocarbon presence, contrasting with modest finds in its counterparts ...
